I was seeing the same regressions on ppc64, and the patch indeed
fixes them.  I'm wondering whether this is best place to perform
this check, though -- maybe it might be better to label function
descriptor minsyms as mst_text to start with (or possibly some
new category) ...

But in the absence of such a solution, I'd still be in favor of
committing your patch as is, given that it fixes a serious
regression and doesn't look like it can make things worse.


Bye,
Ulrich
